Description

Welcome to Anchor Cottage, a detached property nestled on the scenic island of Shapinsay. Ideally positioned adjacent to the public road, the cottage enjoys sweeping views over the surrounding farmland and out towards the sea.

Currently uninhabitable and without services, the property presents a rare opportunity for redevelopment. It is understood that mains water runs through the land, and an electrical connection is available approximately 200 metres away.

Subject to the necessary planning consents from Orkney Islands Council, the cottage may be suitable for renovation, extension, or replacement with a new dwelling. Shapinsay is easily accessible via a regular ferry service from Kirkwall, with schedules available on the Orkney Ferries website. The island offers a peaceful lifestyle with essential amenities including a primary school and a local shop with a post office.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the potential and lifestyle this unique location has to offer.
